Wow, talk about a medal run! Giant George, owned by David Nasser, stands 43in tall paw to shoulder, and weighs 245lb. He was just named by Guinness World Records as both the world’s Tallest Living Dog and Tallest Dog Ever.
Like Susan Boyle, four-year-old Giant George has become an overnight celebrity in his hometown of Tucson, AZ. First, he won the dog-equivalent of the Oscars and then he got invited to be on Oprah’s show. Can he handle it ?? Apparently he can.
On the plane trip to Oprah’s show, American airlines gave him a row of three seats to himself. His arrival in Chicago was met with a growing legion of adoring fans and paparazzi, and most curious to him…..snow!
But he took it all in stride, sleeping off the jetlag anywhere he wanted at the hotel(but mostly on his own mattress). We’re not sure he’s up to signing pawtographs yet but watch for him to be on someone’s red carpet.
Read about his recent adventures to Harpo studios and what it takes to feed (110lb/month!) and house this gentle giant, on George’s own website.
Congratulations George! He’s a George we can be proud of.
